Trip itinerary
Cu Chi Tunnel Half Day
Morning
Around 08:00: We will get on a 2-hour transfer from Ho Chi Minh City to the Cu Chi Tunnels. Along the way, you can take in the beautiful serene nature around you.
The Cu Chi Tunnels used to be a network of underground passages that served as a home, a storehouse for weapons, and a base for revolutionary attacks on American and South Vietnamese troops. Before the tour begins, we'll watch a brief documentary about how these tunnels were used during the war, which will give you an idea of how severe the conflict was.
We will have some downtime after the visit to relax and sample some of the boiled tapioca and hot tea that was provided to the local soldiers throughout the conflict.
Try shooting at the nearby shooting range to see if you can use an AK-47, M16, or any other machine gun (at your own expense as the activity is not included in the tour price).
At 13:00, the tour comes to a close with a transfer return to Ho Chi Minh City.

Beutiful Experience with Best Price Travel & Hang Moon!
by Tripadvisor
Beutiful Experience with Best Price Travel & Hang Moon! 1034140638 12-Day Vietnam Tour – Beutiful Experience with Best Price Travel & Hang Moon! My wife and I recently completed a 12-day tour of Vietnam, travelling from North to South, and it was an unforgettable experience. Thanks to Best Price Travel and the amazing Hang Moon. throughout the trip, Moon was with us every step of the way. Her communication was outstanding, staying in touch via WhatsApp and ensuring every part of our trip ran smoothly. The itinerary was well organised and balanced, covering all the highlights of Vietnam. Every detail, from airport transfers to hotel check-ins, tours, and internal transport was perfectly timed and stress free. The 4-star hotels we stayed in were fantastic, all including buffet breakfasts that exceeded our expectations. Lunches (when included) were set menus at reputable restaurants, giving us a real taste of Vietnamese cuisine. Our tour guides were knowledgeable, polite, and gave us plenty of time to explore and enjoy at our own pace. When our overnight Halong Bay cruise was unfortunately cut short due to bad weather, Best Price Travel quickly organised a private car to return us to our hotel without any delays. A refund was processed for the activities we missed was organised by our agent Moon. This was a hassle free experience, run by honest, professional people who really care about their clients. For our next holiday, we won’t look anywhere else, we’ll be booking again with Best Price Travel. Thank you, Vietnam, Best Price Travel, and especially the lovely Moon

A great booking experience.

A great booking experience.
I got in touch with Best Price in early May 2025 to book a Mekong Cruise from 2 - 9 October 2025. From the start Janet was very helpful and understanding. She made the booking process easy and kept in touch regularly, even after my party had boarded the cruise and again after it was over to ensure everything went well. This is true customer service. I would recommend this company to everyone. Thank you again Janet!

6 Days Tour of Vietnam
by Tripadvisor
We recently booked a 6-day Vietnam trip through BestPrice Travel, covering Ho Chi Minh City to Hanoi and back. Initially, we were skeptical—six nights with airport transfers, domestic airfare, and hotel accommodations for under $600 seemed too good to be true. We honestly expected low-quality hotels and mediocre service. To our surprise, it turned out to be one of the best trips we've ever taken. The hotels were comfortable, and the tours exceeded our expectations. Everything was well-organized and seamless. Special thanks to Cindy Pham from BestPrice Travel, who was incredibly patient and helpful in coordinating every detail of our itinerary. From the moment we were picked up at the airport to the end of our journey, everything went smoothly. We highly recommend BestPrice Travel to anyone planning a trip to Vietnam. Their service and value are outstanding.

Our highlights included a scenic trip to the Mekong Delta and an eye-opening visit to the Cu Chi Tunnels. The train ride to Hanoi was a unique experience, offering a great way to see the Vietnamese countryside. We arrived in Hanoi at 6 AM, so I highly recommend booking your hotel with early check-in (around 7 AM) by paying a small extra fee. It’s well worth it—otherwise, plan to explore the city until your room becomes available at 2 PM.
We also spent a day in Da Nang with a great tour to the Marble Mountains and the impressive Lady Buddha statue. Hoi An was our final stop for the week—there’s so much to see and do! Be prepared for hot and humid weather (26–36°C in July–August), but there's plenty of shopping, local tours, and vibrant nightlife to enjoy. Sports fans should check out 3 Dragons Bar—it’s a great spot to catch AFL and rugby on weekends.
One of the highlights of our trip was cruising Halong Bay aboard the Peony Cruise. The views were stunning, and the boat was top-notch. A two-day cruise is the perfect amount of time to relax and soak it all in.
Vietnam is an amazing country filled with friendly people and unforgettable experiences. I highly recommend booking your holiday through My Uyen at Best Time Travel in Ho Chi Minh City. You won’t be disappointed! Less
A journey through time and a fascinating part of history that's rarely explored. This tour was both informative and engaging—far exceeding my expectations.
Our guide was outstanding. As a former American GI, I didn’t experience the war firsthand, but had heard many stories from older peers. This tour brought those stories to life and made the history feel real in a powerful way.
Andy was a nice guy, but neither very experience nor very well organized. The city tour, lunch and the tunnels were all OK, but definitely not the biggest highlights of the entire Vietnam tour.
Had an amazing experience... learned about the tough times people went through. The underground tunnels and the camouflage techniques they used were really cool.
